Emma is doing great! Her surgery lasted about 4 hours and was in recovery for about 5 - 6 hours waiting on a room to be vacated! She is already cooing a bit and is trying to smile, bless her heart! Makes my mouth/heart hurt so bad for her! She is so beautiful & is such a little trooper! They are taking her IV out tonight as well and should be ready to come home tomorrow. She has to wear little soft but weighted splints on both her little arms so she can't get her hands in her mouth - Please pray for us as I am sure that will be frustrating not only for her, but for us to care for her & knowing we can't do anything about it..... I was going to upload before and after pics, but am borrowing a computer & blogger is NOT being cooperative with me. So I will do my best to get an after picture on her for you!

I will be out of pocket this weekend.
This is Emma's surgery weekend & I will be in Birmingham. She will look so different. I plan on taking before & after pictures of her.........she is already adorable & has her little fingers tight on this Oma's heart, can't imagine what the differnce would be with her repair work, but I know for her sake it must be done.........

Somewhere near Rochester, New York , Ed set out to bag his buck at 5:30 a.m. By 11:30 a.m., he was exhausted and hungry--and still no buck. At 12 noon, the mighty hunter Ed guards the remains of his lunch while a passerby snaps a quiet photo while trying not to startle the deer with a belly laugh . . .

I know I've been MIA but just too busy to take the time to post. Had to do year end reports here at work, so no time for computer! Hopefully soon, life will be "normal" as I know it? What is that I wonder?
Trust everyone had a Happy New Year! Looking for a better 2007 although 2006 had its good moments as well!
Life has been VERY busy of late. My lease is up on my apartment & rather than go to the expense of moving to a larger apartment mom has requested that I move back home with her so she is not alone anymore. After prayer & negotiations I have decided to do so. So..........we are remodeling (at her request) and sorting and packing and the list goes on and on and on. Burning the midnight oil so to speak & achey backs will be well worth it after everything is completed!
